I'm not on the same combination of meds as you, but I too have just added Topomax to the mix, to reduce anxiety and the frequency of my migraines.
I started last night at a really babay dose - 15mg. Woke up a couple of times in the middle of the night, slightly disoriented. Slept in *2 hours* this morning, something that only ever happens when I'm ill with a flu. And my tummy is upset. I expected all these effects, but even at this low dosage!!I'm planning to titrate up very slowly, and I am grateful that I don't have to drag myself off to work while adjusting to this!
p.s. my other meds are Cymbalta 60mg for depression, and Xanax .5mg - 1mg per day for anxiety. I didn't want to take any more Xanax than I already do, but I like the quick effect it gives.
